2bias 3 Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 As many of you know this sunday is Remembrance Sunday. I was just wondering what everyone is doing this sunday for it whether it be marching or getting lashed in a British Legion. ( altho we got the game in the afternoon ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of my family (like everybody else I suppose) served in the World Wars. A few didn't make it home either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wykikitoon 21482 Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 Im disgusted how this isnt advertised as much as it should be. Not enough poppies on show, I always buy at least two.

luckyluke 2 Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 I'm on call. Will be interesting to see how the minute is observed in a busy hospital. Although I suspect a lot of people will ignore it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
